It is at the end of a no-thru street and looks out onto a private urban forest. The house is 2300 square feet, including 800 of finished basement. Walk in the extra-wide door to the living room, dining room and kitchen with gas stove. Built-ins are original as is the gorgeous wavy window glass. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a renovated bathroom that was completed earlier this year. In the basement you will find the laundry area, a second bathroom, rec room and small room perfect for an office or craft area. There are many storage areas including a walk-in area in the basement and a linen closet upstairs. Lots of light, hardwood floors, high ceilings and privacy are only part of what make this a special property. It's a short walk for groceries (Trader Joes, Safeway, New Season's opening this fall), green space (Reed Canyon, Rhododendron garden, park), coffee shops and food (First Cup, Grand Central Bakery, Nudi, Laughing Planet, Otto's), and school (Woodstock Elementary, preschools). Several bus lines are nearby and Springwater Corridor is an easy ride away. Zip cars are available at Reed College. Landlord pays garbage, renter pays all other utilities (gas, water, electric).
